YASpecial Reports series.
Authors explore the history and current status of contemporary issues using major news stories and anecdotes about individuals affected by each topic. The subjects are changing so fast that the information in these books will be quickly dated. Nevertheless, each volume provides serviceable background for report writers. Stock photographs and frequent sidebars contribute to the choppy layouts. Reading list. Bib., glos., ind. Review covers these Special Reports titles: Religion and Free Speech, Black Lives Matter, and Transgender Rights and Issues.
